The ES-345 is the middle man between the simple 335 and adorned 355. It is a perfect balance of class and utility, although it may have a touch of middle child syndrome. Storied by its appearance in Back to the Future the ES-345 has its place in out hearts. This ES-345 is not shy of repairs and it was renecked in the 60's. The guitar is full of mojo and will make some Gibson enthusiast very happy. This guitar is part of a collection of incredible instruments we have passing through the site, so keep an eye out for more incredible pieces of history.

Comes in Gibson hard case.
